Private Equity Accountant – Jersey (Channel Islands) recruitment
The Opportunity
Our client is a well respected financial services organisation with a large global presence. Due to further growth, the firm has a rare opportunity for a Private Equity Accountant to join their fund administration division, at their Jersey office in the Channel Islands. Reporting into the Team Leader, working alongside another qualified accountant, you will be responsible for the efficient and accurate accounting and administration of closed and open ended investment companies, unit trusts and limited partnerships as well as asset backed securitisation structures. You’ll also be the first point of contact for some client relationships.
Your Profile
Ideally, the client is looking for a recently qualified (ACCA/CA) accountant with 2-3 years experience preparing Private Equity accounts. If you’ve worked on these structures within the fund administration space, this is ideal. Likewise, if you have worked offshore previously and are used to the island life, this is also ideal. You will need strong interpersonal skills as you will be dealing with senior management within your client base on a regular basis. Any supervisory experience is an advantage as you will be overseeing the work of the more junior members in the team.
